Is the source-code of the "Dawn of Darkness" Q2 Mod/game still available to you and would you be in the (legal) position to share it ?
I am the author of Quake 2 for AmigaOS, and would like to do a port of it to Amiga (note this is not the old "Amiga 500", but a much more recent system - the Amiga x1000 has been released I think around 10 years ago, with the followup Amiga x5000 only a few years ago, it is basically a PowerPC system (like those old Macintoshes) using ATI Radeon 3D Hardware with it's own operating system.
To run Dawn of Darkness it would need a recompile (it does not run x86 code). Assuming it is just a new game.dll the code-changes would be minimal. Some static's (for example in g_items.c) need to be removed, a makefile needs to be generated, and if there is code which relies on Little Endian architecture this would need to be modified to support Big Endian architecture (the PowerPC CPU used by Amiga hardware is Big Endian).
I could do a port if I get access to the source-code. Alternatively I could guide on what code changes are needed and provide a cross-compiler which runs on Windows (using cygwin).

I am reachable at tirionareonwe@gmail.com
Here you find some information on AmigaOS 4: En.wikipedia.org
And here on the used hardware: Amigaos.net
Thanks in advance.
